What is Dyslexia? Dyslexia is a neurologically based condition that affects reading, spelling, and writing. Dyslexia is very common, and it is estimated that up to 20% of people are affected to some degree. Dyslexia is not a lack of intelligence. Actually, most people with dyslexia have an above average intelligence.
How to learn with Dyslexia? Most times traditional classroom instruction leaves a child frustrated and overwhelmed. Students with Dyslexia need explicit instruction to break apart and learn the structure of language. Lessons need to be multisensory and engaging. My lessons are based on the Orton-Gillingham Method.
What is the Orton-Gillingham Method? The Orton-Gillingham method is a structured literacy approach that teaches connections between letters and sounds. Multisensory instruction includes kinesthetic, auditory, and visual reinforcement of concepts and skills. Orton-Gillingham is research based and has been used since the 1930’s.
